Xenophon, the Athenian military leader and philosopher, isn't exactly the most exciting topic. In this episode about "The Ten Thousand," we delve into his life and the not-so-thrilling campaign into Persia that he chronicled in the Anabasis. Sure, he was a pupil of Socrates, but honestly, who cares? The discussion covers his influences and the usual pros and cons. It’s all pretty standard stuff with a hint of historical relevance, but really, it’s just history.
